    If you don’t have wealth amassed outside the company and the company ends up not being able to pay debts your entire livelihood can be taken by a debt collector. Really depends on the company but if you want to get a loan banks want some safety to back it up

      Man, I wonder what it would be like to live like that. Just dependent on a company making money so you don’t have your livelihood taken from you…

        If you work for a company and it goes bankrupt you don’t get your entire private shit seized. You can find a new company to work for. Starting a company based on debt is inherently risky. This comparison isn’t really as great as you think it is.
